摘要：

A measurement of the forward-backward asymmetries of e(+)e(-) --> Z(0) --> <b(b)over bar> and e(+)e(-) --> Z(0) --> <c(c)over bar> using electrons and muons produced in semileptonic decays of bottom and charm hadrons is presented. Two new variables designed to optimize flavour separation are used in a maximum likelihood fit to a sample of events containing one or two identified leptons, allowing the simultaneous extraction of the b and c quark forward-backward asymmetries as well as the average B-0-B-0 mixing. Using all data collected by OPAL up to the end of 1994, the asymmetries are measured to be: A(FB)(b) = (5.5 +/- 2.4 +/- 0.3)% A(FB)(c) = (-7.5 +/- 3.4 +/- 0.6)% at [root s] = 89.52 GeV, A(FB)(b) = (9.06 +/- 0.51 +/- 0.23)% A(FB)(c) = (6.00 +/- 0.67 +/- 0.52)% at [root s] = 91.24 GeV, A(FB)(b) = (11.7 +/- 2.0 +/- 0.3)% A(FB)(c) = (14.1 +/- 2.8 +/- 0.9)% at [root s] = 92.94 GeV. For the average B-0-(B-0) over bar mixing a value of: <(chi)over bar) = 0.1107 +/- 0.0062 +/- 0.0055, is obtained, where in each case the first error is statistical and the second systematic.
